I found a great deal on a 180 that I couldn't pass up.
It is a "classic" style 180 - 24"x24"x72" with dual corner overflows, each with two holes that can accomodate one 3/4" and one 1" bulkheads. Although this was the "standard" 180 gallon until relatively recently, I've found it harder than I'd have expected to find info as I need it. It feels like most 180g posts and questions over recent years deal with boutique tanks or overflows, so hopefully this thread will be useful to someone out there one day. I'm realistically expecting a few months before it's up and going, but we will see how things go. I've got a few wacky ideas I'm going to be testing out in this second build, now that I have 3 years of research and experience with my first 90g / 92g corner bowfront reef tank. Attached is the picture of the tank as it stands today at the start of the build.
